Today at about 7:30 am, I put my plants out to harden off before going to do some trail maintenance.
As I was placing my last plant down and my hip dislocated again. Luckily Janet had told me that I needed a working cell phone before going, in case I dislocated my hip. I had set it up under Janet’s Appleid today. Unluckily, I had left it in the house on the TV bar and there is no way I could have retrieved it. Janet was wrong, I didn’t need a cell phone.
I just yelled, as loud as I could, “help me!” Shauna came running down the hill and saved me. Janet isn’t getting home until 6:30 today. It would have been so painful.
The ambulance came and took me to Vernon. They reduced the dislocation about 12:00 noon. Luckily they give this really strong pain killer that makes you high. In fact I recall saying this time and last time that it felt like I was in the Matrix. The experience was exactly the same. I wouldn’t go through a dislocation to get the drugs but they sure are a great bonus. Janet came and drove me to Salmon Arm where I caught a ride back with David.
Now I have a cast on four two days.
Jeremey, I can hardly wait to go riding with you next time you come out. It is your turn.

Ouch.
ReplyDeleteWhen you don't have a cell phone, a loud voice will do. Glad Shawna has good hearing.
I too never mind having drugs when there is pain.
So the moral to this story is carry strong drugs in your pocket and keep the hose close by for a drink of water. Have you ever counted Glen how many dislocations you have had?
